    calzaghe and mayweather are just a pair of prima donna pansies. neither hit hard enough to hurt a flea. But most of all BOTH their 0's are BOGUS!!!!
    Pair of overrated cowards in my book

    Calzaghe had a few good wins and did what he had to but in my opinion his record is rather poor compared to a lot of other British fighters so I have no idea about atg status.

    I wouldn't know where to start..

    If we are going by that logic Audley Harrison has a claim to be the greatest of all time.

    Audley Harrison beat Danny Williams who beat Mike Tyson who beat Trevor Berbick who beat Ali.

    Why Joe is better than Harrison:

    Joe Calzaghe beat Bernard Hopkins who beat Jean Pascal who beat Chad Dawson who beat Tomasz Adamek who beat Dominick Gunn who beat Audley Harrison :nod




    Why Joe is better than Ali:

    Joe Calzaghe beat Bernard Hopkins who beat Jean Pascal who beat Chad Dawson who beat Tomasz Adamek who beat Dominick Gunn who beat Tony LaRosa who beat Tevor Berbick who beat Ali :nod

    Now find me a similar path as to why Joe is not the GOAT

    I have Slappy Joe around 278 in the ATG rankings and number 1 in the SMW rankings.

    He might be the 5th or 6th greatest Brit of all time and 2nd greatest Welsh fighter of all time.
